January

This month on the 8th me and my friends organised a trip to climb Adam's Peak. We had to do this on our own, organising food, accomodation, transport, and clothing. It was a great opportunity to develop organisation skills, and coordinating efforts with a group of friends who normally didn't cooperate. In the end most things went according to plan apart from our sleeping arrangements, for which we found ourselves sleeping on the floor in the cold. The climb itself was physically challenging, and at one point we had to virtually carry one member of the group as he had collapsed. Again, we had to work as a team to get him up the mountain, although a few encouraging (or threatening) word helped him along the way. It was very satisfying to have breakfast on top.
